Export Control laws are governed by federal regulations enforced by several federal agencies. These regulations include: the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry & Security; and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), administered by the U.S. Department of State, Office of Defense Trade Control Compliance. The Export Control regulations restrict the physical export of, and communications with foreign nationals about, controlled information and technologies. The University of Arizona researchers may be required to obtain federal export licenses before sharing controlled information or technology with foreign faculty, graduate students and research sponsors. Export Control compliance, including license applications, is managed by the University's Office of the Vice President for Research & Graduate Studies.
